Citizens of Rosebud

Unite! 
Now, shop!

Citizen Rosebud Black Friday sale.
Parking was a breeze!

Up theses stairs , lies a studio flat stocked with 4 rooms of vintage and handmade clothing.
Can you hear my heart race?
Hello! My sweet lindsay of 'Lindsay Lindsay 23'
What a god damn goddess she is.
Lindsays future creations will be made from this...
and fashioned together with that...
I could hardly breathe when I walked in . The studio had the best light, great flow and sweet loving energy racing thru it. I didnt know where to start , so I ran around like JoJo the circus monkey for a few minutes.

RQ giving the tour . This was the 3-5 dollar room
Another room that is not pictured had racks of 5-15 dollar items.




Vintage lingerie, coats, dresses and capes await.
Peek a boo! I see vintage shoes!

With every purchase receive a cup of Chamomile tea, potato and egg plate.
Oh , I cant forget about the massage! 
I felt like a Queen!
The Goddess and her costumes that were custom made for the Pamela Hayes Ballet Troupe of Sacramento Ballet. A night of Ballet performed to live music in 4 acts. It was incredible!

My first Lindsay Lindsay 23 purchase. Huge lover of reconstructed lace!

A Citizen Rosebud ordinal. RQ informed me that this was one of her very first designs!
I have been so inspired to wear floral garments . Possibly because I feel like I bloom during the low sun months, or influenced by RQ's recent Essence of Fall event at Vogue gone Rogue.


If some one asked me what is your inspiration for what you wear everyday , I would say "nature, birds, animals, plants,mountains, rivers, rocks , fish, streams, clouds, soft dirt, pine cones, Shoshone tribes, fur, cabins, bears, cords of wood, the desert ,over grown gardens, plaid and lace." Truly, the list is infinity. I know that is a big mess of nothing, but to me it brings a dream of country life to my city livin'.
So when I spotted this purse, I instantly thought of a fishing creel! How wonderful. Now when I wear it, I think about sitting by the river bank, fishing for tonights dinner.

The 2 (wo)man Thanksgiving day bike parade.

I would say today was a lovely day spent with my honey. No major travel, gobs of family members or hours of driving here and there. We spent time riding our bikes in the streets, and  our Thanksgiving meal was to be at our favorite Thai restaurant.

Our Thanksgiving tribute visit to Sutters Fort. 




"November comes and November goes. With the last red berries, and the first white snows"
Pull up you socks Granny!






Veggie Fried Rolls
Tom Yum Jay soup
Veggie Chow Mein
Veggie Spicy Curry
Jasmine Tea, and Brew for the gent.



Midtown has hidden charms to be appreciated. Sacramento streets snooze a little earlier than other cities. Once 8 p.m. rolls around , it's all yours! Park your car, lock up your bike and take a sweet little walk .
